Background. Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is prevalent among haemodialysis patients and predicts cardiovascular mortality. In addition to modifying traditional risk factors, therapy aimed at lowering serum phosphate calcium–phosphate product has been advocated. Sodium thiosulfate, through its chelating property, removes calcium from precipitated minerals decreasing burden in calcific uraemic arteriolopathy soft tissue calcification. The effect of sodium thiosulfate on CAC never...
Information on the clinical spectrum and management of adenovirus infection after kidney transplantation is limited. From April 2007 to 2010, 17 transplant recipients were diagnosed with disease. The median time was 5 (range, 2-300) weeks transplantation. Of patients, 13 (76.5%) presented early, within 3 months posttransplant, four (23.5%) late, more than transplant. Besides urinary tract, involvement other organs common (63.6%) among patients viremia. Despite reduction immunosuppression,...
Abstract Background Marked hyperphosphatemia, hyperparathyroidism and 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency are associated with mortality in dialysis patients. Such data chronic kidney disease stage 2–4 population limited. It has been suggested that high-normal serum phosphate predicts worse renal patient outcomes. The regarding parathyroid hormone outcomes this is present study examined mineral metabolism its association the development of end-stage Methods This a prospective cohort included 466...
Summary Background and objectives Renal phosphate wasting occurs early postkidney transplantation as a result of an accumulation parathyroid hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 from the CKD period. Serum phosphate, hormone, return to baseline 1 year transplantation. What happens beyond this period is unknown. Design, setting, participants, & measurements Mineral parameters were obtained 229 kidney transplant recipients at least posttransplantation; 46 normal subjects 202 patients with...
To report the kidney transplant activity and survival data during past 25 years from Thai Transplant Registry.By using registry database that was collected updated yearly by 26 centres across country, we have reported donor, recipient, characteristics 1987 to 2012. The primary outcome graft loss defined as return dialysis, removal, retransplant, or patient death.465 transplants were performed in 2012, an 8.1% 23.0% increase living deceased donor compared previous year, respectively. Between...
We conducted a prospective multicenter, opened-label, parallel, randomized, controlled trial to compare tacrolimus (TAC) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) for induction maintenance therapy in lupus nephritis (LN). Adult patients with biopsy-proven LN International Society of Nephrology/Renal Pathology classes III–V active were receive prednisolone (0.7–1.0 mg/kg/day four weeks run-in period tapered) randomly assigned TAC (0.1 mg/kg/day) or MMF (1.5–2 g/day) as six months. All who had remission...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Bone loss is common among hemodialysis patients and contributes to mortality. The association between bone vascular calcification may explain the increased mortality risk. Studies on decreased mass in maintenance are limited. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Eighty-three underwent mineral density (BMD) coronary artery (CAC) measurements. relationship BMD was analyzed after a 5-year follow-up period. <b><i>Results:...
Kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) are at increased risk of developing de novo post-transplant malignancies (PTMs), with regional differences in types excess compared to the general population. A single-center, population-controlled, retrospective cohort study was conducted a tertiary care center Thailand among all adults who underwent their first kidney from 1986 2018. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) malignancy by age, sex, and place residence were obtained using data National Cancer...
Abstract Concentrations of neopterin were measured in urine specimens from 35 patients with active and eight inactive systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Compared those apparently healthy controls, concentrations higher disease (P less than 0.001) 0.01), being significantly 0.001). The correlation between the concentration evidence activity was good. All clinically SLE had increased neopterin, but for only 37.5% (three eight) did exceed upper normal limit during clinical remission. increase...
Background: Tacrolimus, a critical dose drug, is widely used in transplantation. Knowing the contribution of genetic factors, which significantly influence tacrolimus variability, beneficial personalization its starting dose. The significant impact CYP3A5*3 polymorphisms on exposure has been reported. Conflicting results additional POR*28 pharmacokinetic interindividual variability have observed among different populations. objective this study was to explore interaction between and their...
